Suspicious man approaches girl at bus stop in Clarkston area

While waiting for her sister’s bus at Oak Park and Maybee Road in Independence Township, a sixth-grade girl was approached by a man asking if she needed a ride.

Deputies report that he was driving a black four-door SUV and exited the vehicle to talk to the 11-year-old girl. When he asked if she needed a ride, she responded, “No,” and the suspect left. The incident happened around 2:30 p.m. Friday.

The suspect is described as a 50 to 60-year-old man, about 180 to 260 pounds with a big belly, a gray beard and slightly bald with patches of gray hair.
